“Young Master Du, if you’re bored, can I take you to the village for a walk?” Xiang Zhifu saw that Chu Heng had personally expressed his stance on this matter, so he did not care anymore. He only thought that if Ah Heng needed help, he would call him. It was better not to cause trouble now.

For a moment, the room was silent. Xiang Zhifu’s gaze then fell on Du Heng.

He knew that Du Heng was a young master, so he naturally did not dare to neglect him.

“Uncle, don’t mind me. You’ve already treated me well.” Du Heng shook his head.

“It’s just that I went out to the village and walked around twice. I seemed to have heard someone discussing this matter.” After Du Heng mentioned a little, his attention fell on the faces of the two elders of the Xiang family.

As expected, the two of them looked slightly angry.

“I’ll go out and take a look first,” he said as he stood up.

He knew that it was inconvenient for him to talk to his family, so he left very obediently.

Xiang Zhifu only felt that Young Master Du not only had a good family background, but he was also very attentive and easy to get along with. No wonder his relationship with Ah Heng and his wife was so good. He sincerely praised him.

However, the other party’s family background was too good. Du Heng only came to the Xiang residence these days because he was following Chu Heng. After all, it had nothing to do with the Xiang family. Xiang Zhifu only praised Du Heng in his heart and did not think too much about it.

“Father, it is indeed as Young Master Du said. The villagers are discussing about Little Sister. However, everyone is curious. Cousin Ah Heng has offended the Wang family. Will something happen?”

“I am still worried that although Ling’er did not marry over, she still exchanged the betrothal card. If the groom’s family finds out about the marriage in the future, I’m afraid…” The second daughter-in-law of the Xiang family was also a little worried.

Chu Xingjun’s expression changed slightly. Although she was worried in her heart, she did not show it. She coughed lightly and said, “Second Daughter-in-law, don’t talk too much outside. I reckon that your Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle will come over to ask about it in the next two days. Just pretend that nothing has happened. Ling’er’s marriage is not urgent for the time being. We’ll wait for a year or two and then find a more remote family.”

“Let’s go back to the kitchen. The wood ears haven’t been baked yet.”

“Ah Yu, sorry to trouble you again.” Chu Xingjun stood up and looked at Ye Muyu with a kind smile.

Ye Muyu saw that Chu Xingjun was clearly worried about Ling’er’s marriage, but she did not blame her at all. It could be seen that she was extremely kind.

After all, this matter was caused by Ah Heng.

Ye Muyu was a person who knew how to repay kindness. She knew that Xiang Ling’er’s reputation was ruined because of her family and almost got into trouble, so she naturally could not ignore it.

“Eldest Aunt, don’t worry about Ling’er’s marriage. I was just about to discuss it with you. If you trust me, how about you leave Ling’ er’s marriage to me?”

When Chu Xingjun heard this, she was surprised for a moment before she reached out and patted the back of Ye Muyu’s hand gently. Her face was filled with relief. “Ah Yu, I trust you and Ah Heng’s character, but you don’t have to feel guilty. Ling’er is still young anyway. It’s not too late to propose marriage in a year. Moreover, the wood ear business in our family can be developed because of your help.”

“In the future, when our family’s conditions are good, why can’t we let Ling ‘er marry into a good family? This wood ear business is enough. Don’t take it to heart.”

Ye Muyu saw that Chu Xingjun really had a plan, and she probably did not want Ling ‘er to marry far away. The words she said before were also deliberately said because she was afraid that she would overthink.

She thought that Du Heng deliberately mentioned the discussion in the village. He probably wanted to make the Xiang family nervous about Ling’er’s marriage. If he revealed that he wanted to get married, with his relationship with Ah Heng, he would probably be able to get what he wanted.
